Weekly News Blast: This week board members, public works employees, and interested residents traversed most of the town roads for the annual spring inspections. Notes were taken regarding maintenance needed including joint and crack-sealing, signage, shouldering, chip-sealing, to name a few.  Because of the costs incurred over the last few years, especially due to the bridge constructions, town funds for reconstructing roads will be limited this season. The Board has indicated that the emphasis will likely be on road maintenance, with special attention to culverts. You may have noticed large plumes of white smoke east of CTH F this week. The WI Department of Natural Resources occasionally conducts prescribed burns on some of the state owned or managed lands. This is to reduce the number of shrubs and invasive plants encroaching in the grassland habitat. By doing so the burns release needed nutrients to the soil and keep shrubby vegetation in check for the many wildlife species that require an open landscape.  You should have received the winter/spring newsletter last week. If you didn’t you can pick one up at the Transfer Station where extras are available. Enjoy the predicted beautiful tomorrow, Sharon
